Coming full circle the renowned interior designer Nancy Price
transitioned, a few years ago, from customer to exhibitor at the Antique
and Design Center. Her booth's vignettes are as beautiful as the
interiors she so skillfully designs. With a keen eye for color and
composition, Nancy creates an ethereal design experience that sets the
stage for showcasing her unique and exquisitely curated collection of
antiques, vintage furniture, custom jewelry and fine objects.

Without our generous sponsors we could not produce
such a wonderful week of events at High Point Market.

Dan Wilson, owner of Market Imports,
just hasn’t had enough. In over 35 years of buying, selling,
manufacturing, trade/antiques shows, traveling, long flights, early
mornings, late evenings, good and bad food, and all that comes with the
territory, he still finds gratification in “the hunt” and in all of
the varied finds.

Dan’s sharp and experienced eye for detail is evident in his 13,000
square foot High Point showroom at 100 N. Centennial Street, as well as at their new space at The Antique & Design Center of High Point on the Ground Level of Historic Market Square. Items are hand-selected and displayed
in an interesting setting for easy shopping. Many items are
one-of-a-kind.

For over fourteen years, Nashville Rug Gallery, has operated weaving
operations in Turkey to weave their own designs and colors in
reproduction Oushaks and now recently Khotans. They have an extensive
copyrighted catalog of rug designs from which to work with their
customers. Due to the ever changing nature of business, they started to
weave in Nepal over four years ago for their more modern Tibetan rugs in
hand spun Tibetan wool and Chinese silk. Their designs come from things
in nature or other inspirations. Lastly, the past two years , they have
been weaving their flat weaves in India with great success. These are
woven much thicker than other flat weaves, which provides a better
quality rug and look.

Finally, they are proud to introduce their policy of a dollar to dollar
trade in on their rugs. When a rug is purchased, you can trade dollar
for dollar toward any rug or combination of rugs just so long as it
equals or goes higher than the past purchase. Please note the rug needs
to be in shape to resell to another customer. Simply stated this service
is very clear to understand and more importantly they put it in
writing. This will make Nashville Rug Gallery the only rug vendor at
High Point to offer this long term service. Don't miss them at the
Suites at Market Square M-2042

As we continue our quest to "Be Moved", we asked Heidi Hall-Jones, of Punch Jones, what moves her, and we loved her responses. We think you will too...

Transformation. Seeing the potential in an object beyond it's current color, state of repair, or present use. Working with talented craftsmen, keeping time honored decorative techniques alive.

Playing with color, shape, form. Mixing it up: high and low, rough
with the smooth, modern with antique. Adding something unexpected,
whether it's a jolt of color, a texture, an object or piece of art to
energize a space (and get a conversation started.)

The sensual experiences that fold into memories: the scent of tea olives blooming at the back door, sitting in front of a fire with a vintage wool throw wrapped around your shoulders, peonies massed in your grandmother's vase. Understanding that furniture and objects don't merely decorate a house, but become the elements of making a sanctuary, a home.

But most of all: having fun. Enjoying life and bringing joy whenever possible, served up with laughter and a glass of rosé champagne! ~Heidi
